Goal Setting PowerPoint Flowchart Template

Description

This Goal-Setting Process Flow diagram illustrates how structured goal attributes combine with moderating factors and underlying mechanisms to drive performance, reward outcomes, and ongoing commitment. On the left, the Goals box defines specificity, difficulty, accountability, and time-boundedness as essential goal characteristics. Above center, the Moderators box lists goal commitment, importance, self-efficacy, feedback, and task complexity, while the Mechanisms box below captures choice/direction, effort, persistence, and strategies. These inputs converge on the central Performance node. To the right, Contingent and Non-Contingent Reward boxes feed into Satisfaction with Performance & Rewards, which in turn drives Willingness to Commit to New Challenges. Solid and dashed arrows map the input-process-output flow, making it easy to follow each step of Locke and Latham’s goal-setting theory.

Built on master slides for seamless editing in both PowerPoint and Google Slides, this template lets you swap text, recolor boxes, adjust arrow styles, and replace icons without disrupting alignment. Vector shapes ensure crisp visuals at any resolution, while the clean white background and blue gradient accents deliver a professional, modern look. Use this slide in training sessions, strategic planning workshops, or academic lectures to explain complex performance models with clarity and impact.

Who is it for

Organizational psychologists, HR professionals, leadership trainers, and business consultants will find this diagram invaluable for presenting goal-setting frameworks, performance management processes, or motivation strategies to executives, teams, or students.
